"Teil me something of the wonderful
resources of this region"
cts resources are coal and iron in
practically ineXhaustible quantities, To-
Gated nesr together and near to great
fields of limestone, SO that the materials
for making iron and steel are close to
each other. Standing or the stoop of the
Birmingham hotel, three-Quarters of q
mile away from you on one hand you may
see a mountain of the finest iron. Turn
your eyes in another direction, and be-
fore you, st no greater distance from you
than the iron, are fields of coal which
are fitted for the production of iron
and which contain enough coal to
make two-thirds and more Of the
amount that is estimated to exist
in all England. In the other great manu-
featuring districts of the world the coal
and iron lie far apart, or the limestone
has to be conveyed q great distance
Here both coal and iron are mined at the
least expense and with the greatest facili-
lty. They are Of very fine quality, aud
the result is that we can make iron for
IS Il ton which costs in Pittsburg SIG a
ton. Iron now sells at from SIS to S22 a
ton, and Pennsylvania cannot make her
iron for less thsn the above amount. The
result is that the Pennsy lYania ironw0rks
will have to decline, while those
Of Alabama take their plsce. The
railroads realize this, and they
are building into Birmingham from every
direction. There are now five trunk
lines leading into Birmingham, and the
river system Of Alabama is such that the
coal and iron can be shipped down to
Mobile and from thence all over the
world. We can put coal on the ship at
Mobile at total cost of 32.75 q ton. The
freight is very moderate, and in short
time we will be supplying some of the
great cities with coal. In this region we
have 5000 square miles of coal, which lies
in great veins and is easily mined. The
total area OF coal in England is 1900
square miles,

CRAZY MRS. EMMONS.
A sample Of Her Conversation with
Her HusbAnd-she n he
yOnd Recovery.

WASHINGTON, January 8.-The ex.
animation OF DR.. Kempster vas re-
sumed today In the lunacy proceeding
against Mrs. Emmons. He said be
raw Mre, EmmonB In December last
on board the steamship Lydian Mon
arch, at New York, In the presence OF
her husband and DR.. Hamilton. Her
conversation was disconnected and she
ct times became excited. Her huB-
band spoke Of her going to Washing
ton and she said: mo. will cut
NV throat aud now, on the deck OF
this vessel, rather than return to your
house."
Then at another moment she said TO
Der husband: "You know that You had
a commission OF lunscy on the car that
brought me from Washington to Jer-
sey City, and the whole car was
packed with detectives" Mr.. Emmons
said: "My dear, l know nothing
about the gentlemen on the car" She
theIeupon looked him straight In the
eyes and said: "You are DID liar"
Afterwsrd she chattsd pleasantly, and
when her husband ssked: What do
you propose to do ?" she said: Frank,
I have rented the sweetest little place,
the most picturesque place, you ever
saw. have leased IL for nine years,
and have paid E45 down. / want you
to 20 over and sac It,"
DR.. Kempster stated that in his
opinion MIS-. Emmons is insane, and
that she is suffering from chronic
mania OF long standing. He considers
the case incurable.

THE CLEARING HOUSE
TELLS THE STORY OF THE PROS.
PERIlY OF MEMPHIS.
Wonderful Increase In Value OF Lo-
eel Stocks and Bonds-Facts
and Figures.

Thst financial barometer known as
the bank clearings tells the tale OF
commercial prosperity or decline with
unvarying accuracy. Watch the clear
ing house reports OF any city and you
secure the key TO its annual business.
This test, when applied to Memphis,
brings forth most catering result as to
her prosperity, and for this reason
long headed men here and else where
have unbounded conf 1eDce in the fut-
ure of our great city. Railroad men
who are far teting are centerihg their
trunk lines at this great distributing
point for the South, Southwest and
Southeast, Memphis being at the
head OF all the year round navigation
on the Mississippi river. The business
OF 1886 shows an increase OF 22.1 per
cent. over that OF 1885, and an increase
OF 37.6 per cent. over that of the prsvi-
GUS year. The gross deposits Of five
banks Of the CT aring House Associa-
ton December 1886, were some
S5,SO,OO0, against $4,000. 900 for the
previous yelr.
Stock quotations OF banks and other
moneyed institutions have advance
along the whole line during the pest
year. County and city securities also
record strong and we'll defined ad-
vsnce-for inttince, Taxing District
4.6s were worth 81 10 1885 and 10l in
1886. Taxing District 6s advanced
from 81 to l0S. Shelby county long IS
advanced from 1881 to 11Ci. Private
corporations show like results, Mem.
phis Cotton Com press stock, which in
1885 was worth l05, was quoted at l27
at the close Of the year 1886, and is
now held at 100. American Cotton
OIL Trusts ran up from 81 to 63. The
Manhattan Savings Bank and Trust
Company, In q circular Issued yester-
day, reviews the progress made In
financial circles. II is ciesr and sat-
isfactory statement OF the wonderful
strides Memphis is making in career
OF prosperity, ard gives the following
convincing figures:

with one exception, tince the out
break two years ago, when some CLAN
dered horses belonging to Carad an
Pacific contractors were cod at auc-

ease to Others. The exception referred
to was q horfe sent to the veterinary
college for examination, and which,
on being found to be glandered, was
immediat ly shot and the stable disin-
fected. He had visited The stable sew
eral times since, bat found no trace Of
the disease among the other horses.
O. Macear aud other prominent horse
dealers were thundersuuck on hear
ing the news, and stated positively
that there was no ground whatever
for the action OF the Vermont author
tiles, as there was not a single case of
CHAMBERS in Montreal. The scare, they
said, had been gotten up by sensa-
tional Western newspapers TO hurt the
Montreal trade. DR.. Anderson, Amer
lean Consul here, knows nothing
whatever as to the cause OF this step.
